    Hi - im 36 and have 46 Lbs to lose.
    Like you, I really want this time to be the last time I lose that amount of weight - so I want to learn to eat and make peace with food and my body during this time.
    Please add me as your friend.

    Hi, my name is Juanita and ideally I'd like to lose about 50 lbs.... in reality, I don't think I will ever reach that goal! lol This is only my second time ever trying to lose weight and I'm impatient for progress!! I would be happy to be able to lose about forty anyway but we will see how it goes. This is my second week trying this and I'm trying to be good! :happy: Support from others on this journey would be awesome as some days are harder than others... I am sticking with the exercise at only twenty minutes a day, and for me that is MAJOR! The payoff in the end will be worth it as I know, mentally, that it's all about a lifestyle change and they do say that it takes 30 days to form a habit :wink:

    I'm 18 and I've got 33 pounds to lose! I lost a lot of weight a few months ago and was 10 pounds away from my goal but I got off the right track and a gained a lot of it back. I've joined a gym and am staying below my daily caloric limit. Joined on Thursday and went till Saturday. Sunday's off... Here's to hoping for a future of 5-6X a week gym time.

    Hi there!

    I have 50lbs to lose so I'll be here for a while as well. Having others with similar goals will be a real motivational push for me.

    After having heart issues I made up my mind I will NO LONGER be THIS way ! I set my first gowl of 50 lbs - I have melted away (I don't like saying lost because it will NEVER be found again!!) 28 pounds so far !!!! Started a size 24 now a size 18. Once I reach my first goal of 50 I think I will do another 40 or so. Anyone feel free to add me the more encouragement THE BETTER !!!

    Hi y'all...I'm 57 and need to lose 80 lbs. I have been working on it for a year and have only lost about 25 lbs (105 to go when I began) and I am struggling with motivation again. My daughter suggested this site to me so I am going to give it a go. I need help with motivation and would love to meet new friends who need and will give encouragement.
